(i) Revenue and OCF YoY growth rates are on a rebased basis.(ii) Pro forma Adjusted FCF gives pro forma effect to certain increases in our recurring cash flows that we expect to realize following the disposition of the Discontinued European Operations. For additional details, see the information and reconciliation included within the Glossary.

• U.K./Ireland: Record Q2 RGU additions of 112,000 were higher than the prior year, with a larger contribution from both new build areas and our existing footprint. This was driven by our core offers in the U.K. focused on triple-play bundles, which included a doubling of broadband speeds combined with our cutting-edge V6 set-top box

• Belgium: RGU attrition of 8,000 in Q2 was primarily due to continued intensified competition. Our converged quad-play package additions continued to grow, as we gained 18,000 new "WIGO" subscribers during Q2

• Switzerland: Lost 54,000 RGUs in Q2, compared to a gain of 6,000 in Q2 2017, primarily due to heightened competition

• Continuing CEE (Poland, Slovakia and DTH): Lost 7,000 RGUs in Q2, as compared to a loss of 31,000 in the prior-year period

• WiFi Connect Box: Deployments of our latest WiFi Connect box increased by over 360,000 in Q2, ending the quarter with an installed base of nearly 5.1 million or 55% of broadband subscribers across our continuing operations

Belgium added 29,000 mobile subscribers during Q2, a strong year-over-year improvement, as the prior-year period was negatively impacted by the regulated prepaid registration process and its related churn

U.K./Ireland added 21,000 mobile subscribers in Q2 as postpaid growth was partially offset by low-ARPU prepaid losses. The penetration of 4G at Virgin Media increased to 68% of our postpaid base at the end of Q2 and 36% of our U.K. mobile base has been migrated to our full MVNO platform, which went live in Q4 2017

Switzerland mobile subscriber additions were in-line year-over-year with 8,000 mobile subscriber additions in Q2, driven by continued penetration of mobile in the fixed customer base

5Revenue HighlightsThe following table presents (i) revenue of each of our consolidated reportable segments for thecomparative periods and (ii) the percentage change from period to period on both a reported and rebasedbasis:

Full Company ........................ 3.1 3.6

N.M. - Not Meaningful

• Reported revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, increased 9.9% and 12.9% year-over-year, respectively

These results were primarily driven by the impact of (i) positive foreign exchange ("FX") movements, mainly related to the strengthening of the British Pound and Euro against the U.S. dollar, and (ii) organic revenue growth

• Rebased revenue grew 2.7% in each of the Q2 and H1 2018 periods. The result in the YTD period included:

A $5.6 million headwind from the expected recovery of VAT paid in prior periods with respect to copyright fees in Belgium, which benefited revenue in H1 2017

A $6.4 million headwind from the release of unclaimed customer credits in Switzerland in H1 2017

The unfavorable $3.9 million impact due to the reversal during the first quarter of 2018 of revenue in Switzerland that was recognized during prior-year periods

• Continuing CEE (Poland, Slovakia and DTH): Rebased revenue growth of 0.3% in Q2 due to the net effect of (i) growth in our B2B business and (ii) lower residential cable revenue

• Central and Corporate: Rebased revenue increased 59.3% in Q2 due largely to the low-margin sale of customer premises equipment to the VodafoneZiggo JV, which began in the second quarter of 2018

Operating Income • Operating income of $263.9 million and $201.3 million in Q2 2018 and Q2 2017, respectively, representing an increase of 31.0% year-over-year. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, our operating income of $384.3 million million reflects a decrease of 6.7% as compared to $412.0 million in H1 2017

• The increase in operating income in the QTD period primarily resulted from higher OCF, as further described below, partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization. The decrease in operating income in the YTD period primarily resulted from higher OCF that was more than offset by increases in depreciation and amortization and impairment, restructuring and other operating items, net

7Operating Cash Flow HighlightsThe following table presents (i) OCF of each of our consolidated reportable segments for the comparativeperiods, and (ii) the percentage change from period to period on both a reported and rebased basis: Three months ended Six months ended June 30, Increase/(decrease) June 30, Increase/(decrease) 3 3 OCF 2018 2017 % Rebased % 2018 2017 % Rebased %

Full Company .............................. 3.7 4.2

N.M. - Not Meaningful

• Reported OCF for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, increased 10.3% and 12.8% year-over-year, respectively

This result was primarily driven by (i) the aforementioned positive impact of FX movements and (ii) organic OCF growth

• Rebased OCF growth of 3.3% in Q2 and 2.8% in H1 2018 included:

The net unfavorable impact on our revenue of certain items, as discussed in the "Revenue Highlights" section above

Higher costs of $23.8 million in U.K./Ireland during both 2018 periods resulting from the net impact of credits recorded during the second quarter of 2017 ($28.8 million) and the second quarter of 2018 ($5.0 million) in connection with a telecommunications operator's agreement to compensate Virgin Media and other communications providers for certain prior-period contractual breaches related to network charges

Unfavorable network tax increases of $4.6 million and $13.0 million, respectively, following an April 1, 2017 increase in the rateable value of our existing U.K. networks, which is being phased in over a five-year period to 2021 8 Favorable impacts of $12.7 million and $19.4 million, respectively, due to the expected settlement of a portion of our 2018 annual incentive compensation with Liberty Global ordinary shares through a shareholding incentive program that was implemented in 2018

An unfavorable $6.4 million increase in costs during the 2018 periods due to the reassessment of an accrual in the U.K.

• As compared to the prior-year period, our Q2 and H1 2018 OCF margins were up 10 and down 10 basis points, respectively, to 43.0% and 42.0%

Q2 2018 Rebased Operating Cash Flow Growth - Segment Highlights

• U.K./Ireland: Rebased OCF growth of 2.4% was negatively impacted by the aforementioned increase in U.K. costs relating to compensation for prior period contractual breaches related to network charges, the reassessment of an accrual and higher network taxes. Aside from these items, rebased OCF growth resulted from the net effect of (i) increased revenue, (ii) higher handset costs and (iii) lower marketing costs

• Belgium: Rebased OCF growth of 9.0%, largely driven by the net effect of (i) lower direct costs as a result of the migration of subscribers to our own mobile network and (ii) the aforementioned revenue decrease

• Switzerland: Rebased OCF decline of 11.0% in Q2, due to the aforementioned revenue decline, an increase in interconnect costs and an increase in expenses associated with the MySports Platform that was launched in Q3 2017

• Continuing CEE (Poland, Slovakia and DTH): Rebased OCF declined 2.5%, driven by the net effect of (i) the aforementioned revenue trend and (ii) the accrual of $2.6 million of additional costs during the second quarter of 2018 following the reassessment of an operational contingency

Net Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Liberty Global Shareholders

• Net earnings was $912.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to a net loss of $683.2 million for the prior-year period. On a YTD basis, our net loss was $273.9 million and $1,009.7 million during the 2018 and 2017 periods, respectively

11Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations and Statements of Cash FlowsThe condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows of Liberty Global are in our10-Q.

Rebase InformationFor purposes of calculating rebased growth rates on a comparable basis for all businesses that we owned during 2018, we haveadjusted our historical revenue and OCF for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 to (i) include the pre-acquisitionrevenue and OCF of entities acquired during 2018 and 2017 in our rebased amounts for the three and six months ended June30, 2017 to the same extent that the revenue and OCF of these entities are included in our results for the three and six monthsended June 30, 2018, (ii) include revenue and certain operating and SG&A expenses associated with the framework servicesagreement with the VodafoneZiggo JV to reflect amounts equal to the framework services agreement amounts included in ourresults for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, (iii) exclude the revenue and OCF of entities disposed of during 2017,(iv) include revenue for the temporary elements of the Split-off Agreements with Liberty Latin America as if the Split-off Agreementshad been in place at the beginning of 2017, (v) reflect the January 1, 2018 adoption of the new revenue recognition standard(ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) as if such adoption had occurred on January 1, 2017 and (vi) reflectthe translation of our rebased amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 at the applicable average foreigncurrency exchange rates that were used to translate our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. We havereflected the revenue and OCF of these acquired entities in our 2017 rebased amounts based on what we believe to be the mostreliable information that is currently available to us (generally pre-acquisition financial statements), as adjusted for the estimatedeffects of (a) any significant differences between U.S. GAAP and local generally accepted accounting principles, (b) any significanteffects of acquisition accounting adjustments, (c) any significant differences between our accounting policies and those of theacquired entities and (d) other items we deem appropriate. We do not adjust pre-acquisition periods to eliminate nonrecurringitems or to give retroactive effect to any changes in estimates that might be implemented during post-acquisition periods. As wedid not own or operate the acquired businesses during the pre-acquisition periods, no assurance can be given that we haveidentified all adjustments necessary to present the revenue and OCF of these entities on a basis that is comparable to thecorresponding post-acquisition amounts that are included in our historical results or that the pre-acquisition financial statementswe have relied upon do not contain undetected errors. The adjustments reflected in our rebased amounts have not been preparedwith a view towards complying with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. In addition, the rebased growth percentages are not necessarilyindicative of the revenue and OCF that would have occurred if these transactions had occurred on the dates assumed for purposesof calculating our rebased amounts or the revenue and OCF that will occur in the future. The rebased growth percentages havebeen presented as a basis for assessing growth rates on a comparable basis, and are not presented as a measure of our proforma financial performance.

12The following table provides adjustments made to the 2017 amounts to derive our rebased growth rates:

(i) Includes rebase adjustments related to agreements to provide transitional and other services to the VodafoneZiggo JV and Liberty Latin America. These adjustments result in an equal amount of fees in both the 2018 and 2017 periods for those services that are deemed to be temporary in nature. The net amount of these adjustments resulted in decreases in both revenue and OCF of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and decreases in revenue and OCF of $1.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

13Summary of Debt, Capital Lease Obligations & Cash and Cash EquivalentsThe following table(i) details the U.S. dollar equivalent balances of the outstanding principal amount of our continuingoperations debt, capital lease obligations and cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2018:

Certain of these obligations have been or are expected to be repaid with portions of the proceeds from the disposition of UPC Austria and the Vodafone Disposal Group.(iv) The Virgin Media borrowing group includes certain subsidiaries of Virgin Media, but excludes the parent entity, Virgin Media Inc. The cash and cash equivalents amount includes cash and cash equivalents held by the Virgin Media borrowing group, but excludes cash and cash equivalents held by Virgin Media Inc. This amount is included in the amount shown for Liberty Global and unrestricted subsidiaries.

Property and Equipment Additions and Capital Expenditures

The tables below highlight the categories of the property and equipment additions for the indicated periods and reconcile thoseadditions to the capital expenditures that are presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in our 10-Q.

P&E Additions as % of revenue3 ......................... 30.1% 30.0%

______________________________(i) Amounts exclude related VAT of $88 million and $94 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $186 million and $184 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, that were also financed by our vendors under these arrangements.(ii) The capital expenditures that we report in our consolidated statements of cash flows do not include amounts that are financed under vendor financing or capital lease arrangements. Instead, these expenditures are reflected as non-cash additions to our property and equipment when the underlying assets are delivered, and as repayments of debt when the related principal is repaid.(iii) Primarily relates to transfers of centrally-procured property and equipment to our discontinued operations and the VodafoneZiggo JV.

ARPU per Cable Customer Relationship

The following table provides ARPU per cable customer relationship for the indicated periods:

(i) We have approximately 197,000 “lifeline” customers that are counted on a per connection basis, representing the least expensive regulated tier of video cable service, with only a few channels. (ii) Our Internet Subscribers exclude 36,200 digital subscriber line (“DSL”) subscribers within Austria that are not serviced over our networks. Our Internet Subscribers do not include customers that receive services from dial-up connections. In Switzerland, we offer a 2 Mbps internet service to our Basic and Enhanced Video Subscribers without an incremental recurring fee. Our Internet Subscribers in Switzerland include 79,400 subscribers who have requested and received this service. (iii) Our Telephony Subscribers exclude 28,300 subscribers within Austria that are not serviced over our networks. In Switzerland, we offer a basic phone service to our Basic and Enhanced Video Subscribers without an incremental recurring fee. Our Telephony Subscribers in Switzerland include 141,200 subscribers who have requested and received this service. (iv) In a number of countries, our mobile subscribers receive mobile services pursuant to prepaid contracts. As of June 30, 2018, our mobile subscriber count included 501,000 and 442,700 prepaid mobile subscribers in Belgium and the U.K., respectively. (v) Pursuant to service agreements, Switzerland offers enhanced video, broadband internet and telephony services over networks owned by third-party cable operators (“partner networks”). A partner network RGU is only recognized if there is a direct billing relationship with the customer. At June 30, 2018, Switzerland’s partner networks account for 129,000 Cable Customer Relationships, 301,100 RGUs, which include 108,200 Enhanced Video Subscribers, 110,100 Internet Subscribers, and 82,800 Telephony Subscribers. Subscribers to enhanced video services provided by partner networks receive basic video services from the partner networks as opposed to our operations. Due to the fact that we do not own these partner networks, we do not report homes passed for Switzerland’s partner networks.

Additional General Notes to Tables:

Most of our broadband communications subsidiaries provide telephony, broadband internet, data, video or other B2B services. Certain of our B2B revenue is derived from SOHO subscribers that pay a premium price to receive enhanced service levels along with video, internet or telephony services that are the same or similar to the mass marketed products offered to our residential subscribers. All mass marketed products provided to SOHOs, whether or not accompanied by enhanced service levels and/or premium prices, are included in the respective RGU and customer counts of our broadband communications operations, with only those services provided at premium prices considered to be “SOHO RGUs” or “SOHO customers.” To the extent our existing customers upgrade from a residential product offering to a SOHO product offering, the number of SOHO RGUs or SOHO customers will increase, but there is no impact to our total RGU or customer counts. With the exception of our B2B SOHO subscribers, we generally do not count customers of B2B services as customers or RGUs for external reporting purposes.

In Germany, homes passed reflect the footprint and two-way homes passed reflect the technological capability of our network up to the street cabinet, with drops from the street cabinet to the building generally added, and in-home wiring generally upgraded, on an as needed or success-based basis. In Belgium, Telenet leases a portion of its network under a long-term capital lease arrangement. These tables include operating statistics for Telenet's owned and leased networks.

While we take appropriate steps to ensure that subscriber statistics are presented on a consistent and accurate basis at any given balance sheet date, the variability from country to country in (i) the nature and pricing of products and services, (ii) the distribution platform, (iii) billing systems, (iv) bad debt collection experience and (v) other factors add complexity to the subscriber counting process. We periodically review our subscriber counting policies and underlying systems to improve the accuracy and consistency of the data reported on a prospective basis. Accordingly, we may from time to time make appropriate adjustments to our subscriber statistics based on those reviews.

Subscriber information for acquired entities is preliminary and subject to adjustment until we have completed our review of such information and determined that it is presented in accordance with our policies.

19Footnotes1 The term "Full Company" includes our continuing operations and our the Discontinued European Operations, which is the basis (i) on which analyst consensus estimates for our key performance indicators are currently derived and on which we originally provided our 2018 guidance for OCF, Adjusted FCF and Property and Equipment Additions and (ii) that we use to calculate our respective leverage ratios for debt covenant compliance purposes. We present revenue, OCF, Adjusted FCF and Property and Equipment Additions on a Full Company basis in order to allow readers to track our performance against analyst consensus estimates and our original 2018 guidance, as applicable. We plan to provide Full Company information with respect to our original 2018 guidance in our third and fourth quarter 2018 earnings releases so that investors can continue to track our progress against this guidance.2 On December 29, 2017, the former LiLAC Group was split-off into a separate public company, and on May 9, 2018, we agreed to sell our operations in Germany, Hungary, Romania and the Czech Republic. Previously we had agreed to sell our operations in Austria and this transaction was completed on July 31, 2018. As a result of the foregoing, the former LiLAC Group and our operations in Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania and the Czech Republic have all been accounted for as discontinued operations in our June 30, 2018 Form 10-Q (“10-Q”). Unless otherwise indicated, the information in this release relates only to our continuing operations. For a summary of selected quarterly information of our continuing and discontinued operations, as adjusted to give pro forma effect to the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and retrospective effect to the adoption of ASU 2017-07 (as further discussed below in note 3), see the Appendix. For additional information regarding our discontinued operations, see note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in our 10-Q.3 Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), on a prospective basis. All applicable 2017 amounts in this release are presented on a pro forma basis that gives effect to the adoption of ASU 2014-09 as if such adoption had occurred on January 1, 2017. In addition, on January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (“ASU 2017-07”) on a retrospective basis. Accordingly, the operating income and OCF amounts for the 2017 periods in this release have been retrospectively revised to reflect the impact of ASU 2017-07. For a summary of selected quarterly information of our continuing and discontinued operations, as adjusted to give pro forma effect to the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and retrospective effect to the adoption of ASU 2017-07, see the Appendix. For additional information regarding these accounting changes, see note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in our 10-Q.4 The indicated growth rates are rebased for acquisitions, dispositions, FX and other items that impact the comparability of our year-over-year results. Please see Rebase Information for information on rebased growth.5 Based on FX rates as of February 13, 2018. New build and upgrade spend excludes related CPE.6 For purposes of calculating our average tenor, total third-party debt excludes vendor financing.7 Liquidity refers to cash and cash equivalents plus the maximum undrawn commitments under subsidiary borrowing facilities, without regard to covenant compliance calculations.8 Includes subscription and non-subscription revenue. For additional information regarding how we define our revenue categories, see note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in our 10-Q.9 Total B2B includes subscription (SOHO) and non-subscription revenue. B2B and SOHO growth rates include upsell from our residential businesses.10 During the first six months of 2018, we have recognized in Virgin Media's program–to–date totals a further 8,100 premises where construction was completed in prior periods, but serviceability was confirmed during 2018. These 8,100 premises have been included in our Q2 Project Lightning build number, in addition to the 109,800 premises constructed in Q2.11 Consistent with how we calculate our leverage ratios under our debt agreements, we calculate our debt ratios on a Full Company basis, with the gross and net debt ratios defined as total debt and net debt, respectively, divided by annualized OCF of the latest quarter. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. For purposes of these calculations, debt is measured using swapped foreign currency rates, consistent with the covenant calculation requirements of our subsidiary debt agreements, and excludes the loans backed or secured by the shares we hold in ITV plc, Sumitomo Corporation and Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. We have not presented leverage ratios on a continuing operations basis as we believe that such a presentation would overstate our leverage and would not be representative of the actual leverage ratios that we will report once all dispositions are completed. This is due to the fact that our continuing operations exclude all of the OCF of the entities to be disposed but include a portion of the debt that we expect to repay with the proceeds from such dispositions. For additional information, see the details of our pro forma Adjusted FCF within the Glossary and note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in our 10-Q.12 Organic figures exclude RGUs of acquired entities at the date of acquisition and other nonorganic adjustments, but include the impact of changes in RGUs from the date of acquisition. All subscriber/RGU additions or losses refer to net organic changes, unless otherwise noted.13 Our aggregate unused borrowing capacity of $2.6 billion represents the maximum undrawn commitments under the applicable facilities of our continuing operations without regard to covenant compliance calculations. Upon completion of the relevant June 30, 2018 compliance reporting requirements for our credit facilities, and assuming no further changes from quarter-end borrowing levels, we anticipate that the borrowing capacity of our continuing operations would be $2.3 billion.

20Glossary

Adjusted Free Cash Flow (FCF): net cash provided by our operating activities, plus (i) cash payments for third-party costs directly associated withsuccessful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions and (ii) expenses financed by an intermediary, less (a) capital expenditures, as reported inour condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, (b) principal payments on amounts financed by vendors and intermediaries and (c) principalpayments on capital leases (exclusive of the portions of the network lease in Belgium and the duct leases in Germany that we assumed in connectionwith certain acquisitions), with each item excluding any cash provided or used by our discontinued operations. We believe that our presentation of AdjustedFree Cash Flow provides useful information to our investors because this measure can be used to gauge our ability to service debt and fund newinvestment opportunities. Adjusted Free Cash Flow should not be understood to represent our ability to fund discretionary amounts, as we have variousmandatory and contractual obligations, including debt repayments, which are not deducted to arrive at this amount. Investors should view Adjusted FreeCash Flow as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, U.S. GAAP measures of liquidity included in our condensed consolidated statements of cashflows.

The following table provides a reconciliation of our net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations to Adjusted Free Cash Flow forthe indicated periods. In addition, in order to provide information regarding the changes to our Adjusted Free Cash Flow that we expect will occur followingthe sale of the Discontinued European Operations, we also present Adjusted Free Cash Flow on a pro forma basis for three and six months ended June30, 2018 as if the sale of the Discontinued European Operations had been completed on January 1, 2018.

(ii) For purposes of our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, expenses financed by an intermediary are treated as hypothetical operating cash outflows and hypothetical financing cash inflows when the expenses are incurred. When we pay the financing intermediary, we record financing cash outflows in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. For purposes of our Adjusted Free Cash Flow definition, we add back the hypothetical operating cash outflow when these financed expenses are incurred and deduct the financing cash outflows when we pay the financing intermediary.

(iii) No debt, interest or derivative instruments of the UPC Holding borrowing group, other than amounts that are direct obligations of the entities to be disposed, was allocated to discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements that are included in our 10-Q. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we expect to use proceeds from the disposition of the Vodafone Disposal Group and have used proceeds from the July 31, 2018 sale of UPC Austria to repay debt of the UPC Holding borrowing group to the extent necessary to maintain a leverage ratio that is approximately four to five times UPC Holding's Covenant EBITDA. As a result, this pro forma adjustment represents the estimated interest and related derivative payments that would not have been made by UPC Holding if the sale of the Discontinued European Operations had been completed on January 1, 2018. These estimated payments are calculated based on the Discontinued European Operation's pro rata share of UPC Holding's OCF and the weighted average interest rate of the UPC Holding borrowing group at June 30, 2018. Although we believe that these estimated payments represent a reasonable estimate of the reduction in annual interest and related derivative payments that will occur as a result of the sale of the Discontinued European Operations, no assurance can be given that the actual debt repayments will result in reductions equivalent to the amounts presented. No pro forma adjustments are required with respect to Unitymedia's interest and derivative payments as substantially all of Unitymedia’s debt and related derivative instruments are direct obligations of entities within the Vodafone Disposal Group. As a result, the interest and related derivative payments associated with such debt and derivative instruments of Unitymedia are included in discontinued operations.

(iv) Represents our preliminary estimate of the net cash flows that we would have received from transition services agreements if the sale of the Discontinued European Operations had occurred on January 1, 2018. The estimated net cash flows are based on the estimated revenue that we expect to recognize from our transition services agreements during the first 12 months following the completion of the sale of the Discontinued European Operations, less the estimated incremental costs that we expect to incur to provide such transition services.

(v) Represents the Adjusted FCF that we estimate would have resulted if the sale of the Discontinued European Operations had been completed on January 1, 2018. Actual amounts may differ from the amounts assumed for purposes of this pro forma calculation.

ARPU: Average Revenue Per Unit is the average monthly subscription revenue per average cable customer relationship or mobile subscriber, as applicable.Following the adoption of ASU 2014-09, subscription revenue excludes interconnect fees, channel carriage fees, mobile handset sales and late fees,but includes the amortization of installation fees. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2014-09, installation fees were excluded from subscription revenue. ARPUper average cable customer relationship is calculated by dividing the average monthly subscription revenue from residential cable and SOHO servicesby the average number of cable customer relationships for the period. ARPU per average mobile subscriber is calculated by dividing residential mobileand SOHO revenue for the indicated period by the average number of mobile subscribers for the period. Unless otherwise indicated, ARPU per cablecustomer relationship or mobile subscriber is not adjusted for currency impacts. ARPU per RGU refers to average monthly revenue per average RGU,which is calculated by dividing the average monthly subscription revenue from residential and SOHO services for the indicated period, by the averagenumber of the applicable RGUs for the period. Unless otherwise noted, ARPU in this release is considered to be ARPU per average cable customer 22relationship or mobile subscriber, as applicable. Cable customer relationships, mobile subscribers and RGUs of entities acquired during the period arenormalized. In addition, for purposes of calculating the percentage change in ARPU on a rebased basis, we adjust the prior-year subscription revenue,cable customer relationships, mobile subscribers and RGUs, as applicable, to reflect acquisitions, dispositions, FX and the January 1, 2018 adoption ofthe new revenue recognition standard (ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) on a comparable basis with the current year, consistentwith how we calculate our rebased growth for revenue and OCF, as further described in the body of this release.

ARPU per Mobile Subscriber: Our ARPU per mobile subscriber calculation that excludes interconnect revenue refers to the average monthly mobilesubscription revenue per average mobile subscriber and is calculated by dividing the average monthly mobile subscription revenue (excluding handsetsales and late fees) for the indicated period, by the average of the opening and closing balances of mobile subscribers in service for the period. OurARPU per mobile subscriber calculation that includes interconnect revenue increases the numerator in the above-described calculation by the amountof mobile interconnect revenue during the period.

Basic Video Subscriber: a home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives our video service over our broadband network eithervia an analog video signal or via a digital video signal without subscribing to any recurring monthly service that requires the use of encryption-enablingtechnology. Encryption-enabling technology includes smart cards, or other integrated or virtual technologies that we use to provide our enhanced serviceofferings. We count RGUs on a unique premises basis. In other words, a subscriber with multiple outlets in one premises is counted as one RGU and asubscriber with two homes and a subscription to our video service at each home is counted as two RGUs.

Blended fully-swapped debt borrowing cost: the weighted average interest rate on our aggregate variable- and fixed-rate indebtedness (excluding capitalleases and including vendor financing obligations), including the effects of derivative instruments, original issue premiums or discounts and commitmentfees, but excluding the impact of financing costs.

B2B: Business-to-Business.

Cable Customer Relationships: the number of customers who receive at least one of our video, internet or telephony services that we count as RGUs,without regard to which or to how many services they subscribe. Cable Customer Relationships generally are counted on a unique premises basis.Accordingly, if an individual receives our services in two premises (e.g., a primary home and a vacation home), that individual generally will count as twoCable Customer Relationships. We exclude mobile-only customers from Cable Customer Relationships.

Customer Churn: the rate at which customers relinquish their subscriptions. The annual rolling average basis is calculated by dividing the number ofdisconnects during the preceding 12 months by the average number of customer relationships. For the purpose of computing churn, a disconnect isdeemed to have occurred if the customer no longer receives any level of service from us and is required to return our equipment. A partial productdowngrade, typically used to encourage customers to pay an outstanding bill and avoid complete service disconnection, is not considered to bedisconnected for purposes of our churn calculations. Customers who move within our cable footprint and upgrades and downgrades between servicesare also excluded from the disconnect figures used in the churn calculation.

Enhanced Video Subscriber: a home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives our video service over our broadband networkor through a partner network via a digital video signal while subscribing to any recurring monthly service that requires the use of encryption-enablingtechnology. Enhanced Video Subscribers are counted on a unique premises basis. For example, a subscriber with one or more set-top boxes that receivesour video service in one premises is generally counted as just one subscriber. An Enhanced Video Subscriber is not counted as a Basic Video Subscriber. Aswe migrate customers from basic to enhanced video services, we report a decrease in our Basic Video Subscribers equal to the increase in our EnhancedVideo Subscribers.

Homes Passed: homes, residential multiple dwelling units or commercial units that can be connected to our networks without materially extending thedistribution plant, except for DTH homes. Certain of our Homes Passed counts are based on census data that can change based on either revisions tothe data or from new census results. We do not count homes passed for DTH.

Internet Subscriber: a home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives internet services over our networks, or that we servicethrough a partner network. Our Internet Subscribers do not include customers that receive services from dial-up connections.

MDU: Multiple Dwelling Unit.

Mobile Subscriber Count: the number of active SIM cards in service rather than services provided. For example, if a mobile subscriber has both a dataand voice plan on a smartphone this would equate to one mobile subscriber. Alternatively, a subscriber who has a voice and data plan for a mobilehandset and a data plan for a laptop would be counted as two mobile subscribers. Customers who do not pay a recurring monthly fee are excluded fromour mobile telephony subscriber counts after periods of inactivity ranging from 30 to 90 days, based on industry standards within the respective country.In a number of countries, our mobile subscribers receive mobile services pursuant to prepaid contracts.

MVNO: Mobile Virtual Network Operator.

NPS: Net Promoter Score.

OCF: As used herein, OCF has the same meaning as the term "Adjusted OIBDA" that is referenced in our Form 10-Q. OCF is the primary measure usedby our chief operating decision maker to evaluate segment operating performance. OCF is also a key factor that is used by our internal decision makersto (i) determine how to allocate resources to segments and (ii) evaluate the effectiveness of our management for purposes of annual and other incentivecompensation plans. As we use the term, OCF is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, provisionsand provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and other operating items. Other operating items include (a) gainsand losses on the disposition of long-lived assets, (b) third-party costs directly associated with successful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions, 23including legal, advisory and due diligence fees, as applicable, and (c) other acquisition-related items, such as gains and losses on the settlement ofcontingent consideration. Our internal decision makers believe OCF is a meaningful measure because it represents a transparent view of our recurringoperating performance that is unaffected by our capital structure and allows management to (1) readily view operating trends, (2) perform analyticalcomparisons and benchmarking between segments and (3) identify strategies to improve operating performance in the different countries in which weoperate. We believe our OCF measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our performance with the performance of othercompanies in the same or similar industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other publiccompanies. OCF should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income, netearnings or loss, cash flow from operating activities and other U.S. GAAP measures of income or cash flows.

A reconciliation of our operating income to total OCF is presented in the following table:

Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30, 2018 20173 2018 20173 Continuing Full Continuing Full Continuing Full Continuing Full operations Company operations Company operations Company operations Company in millions

OCF margin: calculated by dividing OCF by total revenue for the applicable period.

Property and equipment additions (P&E Additions): includes capital expenditures on an accrual basis, amounts financed under vendor financing or capitallease arrangements and other non-cash additions.

RGU: A Revenue Generating Unit is separately a Basic Video Subscriber, Enhanced Video Subscriber, DTH Subscriber, Internet Subscriber or TelephonySubscriber. A home, residential multiple dwelling unit, or commercial unit may contain one or more RGUs. For example, if a residential customer in ourU.K. market subscribed to our enhanced video service, fixed-line telephony service and broadband internet service, the customer would constitute threeRGUs. Total RGUs is the sum of Basic Video, Enhanced Video, DTH, Internet and Telephony Subscribers. RGUs generally are counted on a uniquepremises basis such that a given premises does not count as more than one RGU for any given service. On the other hand, if an individual receives oneof our services in two premises (e.g., a primary home and a vacation home), that individual will count as two RGUs for that service. Each bundled cable,internet or telephony service is counted as a separate RGU regardless of the nature of any bundling discount or promotion. Non-paying subscribers arecounted as subscribers during their free promotional service period. Some of these subscribers may choose to disconnect after their free service period.Services offered without charge on a long-term basis (e.g., VIP subscribers or free service to employees) generally are not counted as RGUs. We donot include subscriptions to mobile services in our externally reported RGU counts. In this regard, our June 30, 2018 RGU counts exclude our separatelyreported postpaid and prepaid mobile subscribers.

U.S. GAAP: United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

YoY: Year-over-year.
